B-2   Management Workstation Application
Overview
Management Workstation Application (MWA) is an application used for remote
server management in a network environment. The managed server may be
remotely accessed from a management PC (the computer in which ESMPRO™
operates). MWA is a pre-boot management application in that the managed
server is accessed prior to loading the server operating system. See Figure B-1.
